Toy Shopping Elf

I decided to make another Christmas card to add to my stash for the holidays. Peachy Keen Stamps had a great sketch for their current challenge and I couldn't resist giving it my own spin.

The stamp is Snickerdoodle Gift Elf from Peachy Keen Stamps. I added some white flower soft to his clothes for some fun trim and I sewed a jingle bell on to his hat.

The toy shop is actually the candy store cut from the My Community Cricut cartridge. I added a few toys from the B is for Boys and the Everyday Paper Dolls Cricut cartridges to display in the store windows. I finished the whole thing off by adding snow tex on the ground.

Julie, this is such a creative take on the challenge! Love the awning you created for the top element and your entire scene is just adorable. I'm ready for Christmas, too! Thanks for playing along in the PKS Sketch Challenge! Good luck!

This is my kind of card! I love cards with scenes! This is fabulous! New follower. I really love your work and had fun looking at several of your creations. Thanks for joining the PK challenge and good luck!

About Me

I absolutely love paper crafts!! I am a scrapbooker but my favorite craft is card making. It is so much fun to pick out paper, ribbon, embellishments and sentiments to send to someone special. I enjoy stamping, embossing with my cuttlebug and of course using my Cricut die cutting machine. I have two teenage sons and a dh who may not share my passion for crafting but at least will feign interest when I show off my latest project.
